Well, the time has finally come.

Tomorrow, at 13:30 PM Italian time, I will board an airplane heading for London Heathrow, where I will meet with three other users of this forum, one of which, who will be our guide, is Lord Raa.

It will be seven days of the most complete debauchery and excessive fun, I will make sure of it. Also, if I don't get smashed this time, it means I'm half dwarf. That list of beers...

Monday - 8:10 PM (PDT)
Lindbergh Field (AKA: San Diego International Airport)
San Diego, Ca. USA

Teh Mexican-American is about to board his plane, laptop in hand and anime drive primed and ready... shamelessly debating if he should marathon The Irresponsible Captain Tylor, Macross Frontier, Kara no Kyoukai or Persona 4 (The Animation)... for the N+1th time, while en route to London's Heathrow Airport.

11+ hour flight not withstanding, I'm pumped!. Although a bit sad that I could not stow away a six pack of Tijuana Beer onto my check-in luggage (logistics mishap on my part... maybe next Beer Fest!).

Hey Meinos, Mosh, Joe... heck even good Old Raa!
Any of you Gents feel like swapping cameras while we're out there?
I wanna make sure I appear (even if blurry) in my vacation pictures... for the first time in years :p

Good Journey Muchachos... see you in Braveland!

7:35 AM. Monday.
Flight in 6 hours from Roma Fiumicino.

My luggage is packed, I won't bring my laptop but I will bring my camera. No anime, but there's a lot of Pokémon fanfiction I need to go through on my Kindle. My Derpy plushy will miss me but this is for the good of all mankind.

Now, I just need a shower, to pack the perishable things into the luggage and... Voilà. Gentlemen, just a warning: you're going to eat Italian for dinner, one of these nights.

London Heathrow Airport

"London Baby! London!" - Joey Tribbiani (Friends)

Finally arrived, the food on the plane wasn't half bad.
And now to brave UK Customs before picking up my baggage... 45 minute wait? Uguu~!
Hope Raa hasn't been waiting too long.

I need a beer! (@.@)cU

Btw... here's the host with the most!

...you planned an international meetup with no idea how to contact each other or what you all look like.

This is hysterical.

As part of the TFF audience hoping for stories of wacky shenanigans, I say this trip is off to a great start.

So after a bit of riding the wrong trains, Teh Italian has joined the party.

And now we're patiently waiting on Teh Romanian.

At the moment Meinos is wrestling with my kitchen to make us something delicious while Mosh is struggling to connect to my wi-fi network.

So after a great meal and stiff drink, courtesy of Meinos; We finally went out to the first night of the Hinckley Beer Festival.

Over 60 Ales and 20+ Ciders and Perries.
And we all got a snazzy half pint mug to pick and chose our pois.... er... drinks.

Meinos... Mosh... profuse apologies for the bear growling...er...snoring.

So in between beer sessions, Raa has been kind enough to cart us around the Leicester area.

The past couple of days have been full of lulz as we visited Foxton Locks
